AccuPower® Edwardsiella tarda Real-Time PCR Kit

Overview

E. tarda is widely distributed in freshwater and oceans, mainly in tropical and subtropical regions. The consumption of undercooked fish and shellfish is the main route of infection, and infection with E. tarda usually causes gastroenteritis and colitis. And it can rarely cause an extra-intestinal infection. These extra-intestinal infections are usually observed in adult patients more than in children and have a higher mortality rate. These extra-intestinal infections can cause liver abscesses, which are more likely to occur in patients with underlying diseases such as hepatobiliary system disease, cancer, and diabetes.

Features and Benefits

• Convenience
  All necessary reactants for real-time PCR are included in a tube (i.e., Master Mix Type), allowing the users to perform reaction simply by adding template DNA, Oligo Mix, and DEPC-D.W.
  
  
• Sensitivity
  By using BIONEER’s HotStart Taq DNA Polymerase that minimizes non-specific reactions and maximizes reaction efficiency, only the target gene can be effectively amplified even with a trace amount of template DNA.
